This guy and his team won #30m at a Zenith Bank's hackaton they were not invted to
No invitation
Yet, won the hackathon
How did they do it?
Watch and learn

I built TrueTick: an AI scam checker for texts, screenshots, voice notes, QR codes, live calls and crypto wallet requests.
Built with Meta's Muse models for the Meta AI Hackathon 🇳🇬

My team just won @ZenithBank’s Zecathon 6.0 🥳
With 1.2K+ applicants, a 1.6% acceptance rate, and 3 highly competitive stages, finishing 5th as the only student-led team from Nigeria in the finals makes this even more special.

I built a game where you drive a danfo through Lagos 🚌
Load passengers, dodge okadas, beat the traffic. Plays in your browser, no download.

Researchers proved AI has deleted every reason universities exist.
Harvard University ran a controlled experiment pitting a custom AI against their own top-tier classrooms.
And the results are going to collapse the higher education bubble.
They took 194 undergraduates and split them up.
One group learned physics in one of Harvard’s best hands-on, active-learning physical classrooms. Group work. Instructor support. The premium university experience.
The other group went home and learned the exact same material with an AI tutor.
The AI didn't just win. It embarrassed the institution.
Students using the AI learned more than twice as much as the students in the elite Harvard classroom.
They scored 30% higher on the final assessment.
And they did it in less time.
Let that sink in.
A piece of software sitting on a laptop outperformed a world-class faculty in one of the most elite learning environments on Earth.
Universities have always justified their exorbitant tuition with two things: access to elite knowledge and the physical classroom experience.
This study just proved both of those moats are gone.
When software can teach you complex physics twice as well as a $60,000-a-year institution, the math of higher education breaks permanently.
The AI didn't just give the students answers. It used strict pedagogical guardrails. It guided. It questioned. It forced the students to do the cognitive work.
It offered perfect, one-to-one tutoring, personalized to the exact moment a student misunderstood a concept.
That level of attention is mathematically impossible to scale in a physical lecture hall.
For a thousand years, the university was the only place to get a premium education.
Now, it’s the bottleneck.
If AI can double your learning speed for a fraction of the cost, what exactly are students taking on decades of debt to pay for?
Excited to be participating in the Borderless Bytes Hackathon by StacStart.
I'm a software engineer building web systems and exploring applied AI, and I'm looking forward to building a product that addresses a real African problem.

Just completed a physical interview for a Software Engineering role today.
I’m glad with how it went and grateful for the opportunity to have the conversation.
Now, I wait. 🤞
